“He will respond to the prayer of the destitute.” Psalm 102:17
I researched the word “destitute” because in my mind, I typically would define destitute as “homeless.” Maybe you too? So I read every major Bible translation of this verse, thinking there might be another word to further explain. But after eight translations, each one used the word “destitute.”
Then I began to read various dictionary definitions of the word “destitute.” While we typically interpret this word as “lacking food, clothing or shelter,” the second definition simply means “lacking.”
“He will respond to the prayer of the lacking.”
You see, it’s not about what we lack. It’s the fact that we are always missing something when we rely on ourselves. It’s when we come to Him in honest desperation that God can do an incredible work in our hearts and lives.
I formed a one-word prayer in response to Psalm 102. “Lord, I’m desperate. Let it be for You.” Join me as we examine 31 desperate moments in the Bible and the lives of those who echoed this prayer.
Lord, I’m desperate. Let it be for you.
